Pyrazolam is a benzodiazepine derivative originally developed by a team led by Leo Sternbach at Hoffman-La Roche in the 1970s,[1] and subsequently "rediscovered" and sold as a designer drug and research chemical starting in 2012.[2]
Pyrazolam has structural similarities to alprazolam[3] and bromazepam. Unlike other benzodiazepines pyrazolam does not appear to undergo metabolism, instead being excreted unchanged in the urine.[2][4] It is most selective for the α2 and α3 receptor subtypes.[5]
